Those gems are fairly equivalent to BT ones, and when we talk about optimizing your gear you should do no compromises at all on farmable content. I have bought lately the [Bold Ornate Ruby] for 6885 honours points and put it on my chest.I am saving now for the the Battlemaster trinket but I'll focus on obtaining the two others gems asap, beginning with the AP/Crit one.

Enhancement's problem is IMO by far the toughest; it can be kited too easily, invalidating 100% of the shaman's DPS. Making SR undispellable won't fix that, so I don't consider it a fix. Some sort of root, teleport to the target, resistance to snares, something is needed if the spec will ever be anything more than a fun thing to do in BGs and not a guaranteed 1800 rating for all but a minuscule part of the population who are talented and dedicated enough to make it work.

I hope I will be in the "chosen ones" before the beginning of WOTLK. Some have done it, I personally don't think it is impossible even with the problems that our class knows. It will begin by dealing more efficiently with RMP, we have brainstormed a lot about finding a solution lately and read some great articles on it.

And, I decided to do same as Megan and provide you my email adress if you feel to ask me some questions or whatever but do not want to write a comment :

Don't know why I haven't stumbled on your page more frequently, thanks for the semi-shoutout. Hope your Arena is going well, we have one Enhancement Shaman in my guild who does 3's around the 1600 bracket and I try to help him to the best of my ability.

On another note, I'm pretty perplexed why BT gems are superior for PVP yet obtained through PVE, especially 10 Resilience---that should be Honor bought right there. Halaa offers 1 which is UniqueEquipped but I don't get a good feeling in my stomach when I see armories of teams with superior gemming due to the fact that they have access to what drops in BT.

And as a Lock I have bought 0 Honor gems since Season 1, there needs to be more variety, Spell Crit is near useless for me and only Spell Damage is a liability when I have to survive through Warriors and Rogues while being chain dispelled/snared/stunned. More choices wouldn't hurt, where are Honor gems for healing types too?
